Is there information on tools for making wiki articles?
I want to work on an article (wiki-modifications) and have it not be visible until it's done. Any way to do this?

Word. I can even do the headers and it makes the contents box/links after I paste it over. Cool!
Then I deleted something and the table of contents disappeared :(
I'll experiment with pics next.
Thank you.

I'll revamp and edit the article, but copy over only one section at a time if there's formatting issues so I'll know it's just in that one small part.
You can't do photos, you need to plug them in directly into the wiki...my Word isn't bringing them over.

We should make a place to store the Wiki backups on like an FTP server or something. I don't know how exactly would be the most straightforward. I suppose that the easiest way would be to setup an FTP server and then let anyone upload/manage it, which seems like a bad idea. The hardest would be to move to an actual Wiki like Deskthority. I guess we could petition iMav for a real wiki and if it goes through, set some of the new moderators to work at migrating the data under the author's approval that everything is correct.
Off topic: Ripster or ripster? I'm never quite sure what is the correct capitalization or not. Just for my own clarity.
